Christmas Day. Hip-deep in a pandemic. Nope. Gen X didn’t see that coming, way back in the 80’s. Criminal tomfoolery poured forth from the White House like a busted pipe, even as the incumbent retired to Mar-a-Lago for the Christmas break. Lieutenant General Michael Flynn and Arizona Republican Chairwoman Kelli Ward were dogging him to declare martial law and rerun the election under military rule. They wanted him to ‘cross the Rubicon,’ a reference often used by alt-right sects in recalling Julius Caesar’s crossing of the Rubicon River in Italy after the Roman Senate told him not to, that decision leading directly to the Roman civil war and ultimately Caesar’s dictatorship.
